Life, dear readers, can be pretty crap.
However, it can be pretty choice. So it balances out.
But it’s not the bad times that make us who we are. It’s not the good times either. It’s the act of living. Jelly touched on the fact that when you're writing about something it's easier if you're going through it yourself and that’s true. Very wise writers, much wiser and with much more experience than I, the world over suggest that the best thing a writer can do is live. As you live your life just write. Not a diary or anything like that, but do that if it helps. If you like writing you should just do it when ever. For the hell of it. Put words on paper for any reason. Write anything, poems, stories whatever. No one has to read it.
And as I’ve lived my life over the last few months dealing with everything it has to offer me I’ve written. Witten not about how I feel I’ve just written. I’ve now got scores of random documents on my computer, poems, short stories all sorts. No one will ever read them, probably.
But they are there in my arsenal for if I ever need them.
P.S. It’s been a long week. I’ll write something funny for next time.
P.P.S. My vote is for “Two in the Pink one in the Ink.”
Your vote has been counted.
